Anna lunch and tasting, and later I'll be posting my notes from the Mark Anthony Brands Tasting (coming soon). But let's take a look in on this winery from Italy and see the wines they produce ... it was suppose to be a coming out party for their new to the LCBO Cabernet Franc, but the real stars were Pinot Grigio from the Fruili region and a Prosecco from the Valdobbiadene hills ...
